Internal Polling Shows Marco Rubio Crashes, Burns After Horrendous Debate Performance

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — At least two separate GOP presidential campaigns’ internal polling data shows a demonstrable and significant slide for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) after his widely panned debate performance—where New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie targeted him—Breitbart News has learned.

A pro-Ohio Gov. John Kasich Super PAC published, via Politico, internal polling numbers showing a drop off for Rubio after Christie exposed him during the debate.

In that poll, Rubio fell down to 10 percent and into fourth place. “Most of the polling conducted in the immediate days before the debate showed Rubio in second place,” Politico’s Alex Isenstadt wrote late Sunday.

“The survey, which was based on phone calls to 500 likely voters (margin of error plus or minus 3 percent), was conducted Sunday, the day following the latest Republican debate,” Isenstadt added.

I know better than to trust opposing campaigns’ reports of “internal polls” but can’t imagine Rubio not being hurt by the debate.

Be interesting to see who picks up his loss.

Anybody with half a brain knows that this guy is a snake oil salesman like Romney.

Has accomplished NOTHING in his entire life except getting suckers to vote for him.

Brings NOTHING to the table when it comes to being qualified to be POTUS.

Another Obama.

I guess for many people, research is not important.

Who would think that criticizing Obama would be so terrible in a Republican primary? I have a lot of criticism for Rubio, but staying on message and criticizing Obama is definitely not one of them. The media wants Republicans to tear down each other. Well, Christie defended his boy and I guess it worked.

I’ve been wondering about Rush recently. Did someone get to him?

depends on who rises.

I definitely don’t want Bush to rise.

Christie is a homosexualist disaster.

I guess Kasich is better than those two, but he’s an oddball, too, and I think he also is pro-amnesty.

Let’s dispel with this fiction that Marco Rubio doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

Haha Good one!

Rush plays golf in FLA with a couple big Rubio donors.

“It’s actually very bad news if Kasich goes up and is left standing. He’s “plan B” for the backstabbing elite.”

Plan C.

Yeb was A

Rubio B

Christie is D

Trump is E

Hillary is F

Cruz is G

Well, it is like the cretins who insisted that Mitt Romney was “severely conservative” when his record was the complete opposite.
Actually looking at facts isn’t in their itinerary.

Rush has been compromised.

Many polling services are going to "adjust" their polls to more closely reflect reality in advance of the primary.

That said, the primary is tomorrow, and we will know soon enough what the real numbers will be.

I do not get it. Why? Is there a special connection between Rush and Rubio? Rubio is an empty suit and pushes amnesty.

It seems he truly has forgotten that fiasco.
Didn’t he advocate for voting out the senators who were on the Gang of Eight?

Maybe they’ve told Rush how this is all gonna shake out when the GOPe wrestles the reins back from the people.

Oh, please, let’s hope!

I’m back to looking for a Trump/Cruz ticket. My hope is that Christie, who won’t fly outside of the Northeast for a bit, gets a “third ticket” out of NH—burying Rubio, Jeb!, and Kasich in his sizable wake.

I think the poll out today shows Rubio and Cruz both at 13%.
